If the Port of Los Angeles is so “green,” why does it continue to spend millions of dollars in legal fees to appeal the Superior Court’s decision that its plans for its dirty railyard in Wilmington do not adequately protect the public’s health?

Green technologies exist to do so, but the port refuses to use them.

And what is it going to do to redress its willful and underhanded violations of its pollution reduction obligations under the China Shipping lawsuit settlement? It looks like they talk out of both sides of their mouths.

All of these claims of “greenness” contain a very large percentage of PR and spin. As you rightly report, the ports remain what air regulators call “the biggest fixed source of pollution in the Los Angeles area.” Let’s not be lulled into forgetting it by feel-good PR.

I’m puzzled by many things in the article about Liberty Mutual paying $925,000 settlement over ads.

First, why does the California Department of Insurance prohibit “accident forgiveness”? Second, why is the settlement only for three counties when it is a state law that was violated? Third, where does the $830,000 go, since only $95,000 is for investigative costs?

What I see is government denying consumers the choice of accident forgiveness and extorting money from a business because it costs too much to defend a lawsuit on three fronts and district attorneys get to decide what constitutes “clearly and conspicuously” disclosure.

I’d welcome seeing a consumer harmed by the ads and whether they get any of the money. Did someone make a complaint, or is it government spending time to seek deep pockets?

We were told that Obamacare would cut the costs of insurance and that people could keep their doctors.

So we are now hearing that Obamacare premiums are to soar 25 percent on average. Why isn’t this the lead story in all media outlets?

But I guess a 25 percent increase to the American taxpayer is not a problem to those in Washington, D.C., who exempted themselves from Obamacare and control the purse strings to make sure they get pay raises at the hands of the taxpayers whom they have long since forgotten about.

Seems that Donald Trump may be right in that if he is not elected, this all gets covered up and we get the same morass in the swamp that is D.C.

It needs to be drained, and there may be time for the American public to get really angry, because these increases are real, and the insurance is mandatory.
